Hello IKEA fans!

Yesterday, I tried to assemble my newly purchased Välgjord dishwasher. While adjusting the height of the feet, I noticed that the foot located at the back in the middle, according to the assembly instructions (the foot that should be adjusted via the front middle adjustment screw), is missing. I couldn’t find it anywhere in the packaging, so I assume it’s simply not included. Has anyone else encountered this?

I thought about replacing the missing rear foot with one of the front ones and temporarily adjusting the height at the front using washers. Unfortunately, this doesn’t work either, as the rear hole has no thread and is slightly smaller than the front ones. Honestly, I’m a bit stuck now. Most likely, a trip to IKEA is unavoidable, but does anyone have any other suggestions on how to proceed? Or am I possibly overlooking something?

Thank you very much

Hello,
the rear hole is for the inserted adjustable foot. It might be tightened quite firmly, which is why it may not turn initially with the adjustment screw and must be turned directly first.
